I haven't seen a 1:9 option anywhere, just found that Browning changed their HC LR to 1:8 this past year. Hence why I've asked this question.
The HC Speed is still a 1:10 as are all the other x bolts in various models with the 300wm cal. I'd like to go to the speed for the weight savings.
I'm looking at the x bolt HC because of what all you get for the price. Cerakote, brake, etc.
if price wasn't a consideration, I'd just have Gunwerks or someone build me a ready to go rifle.

I'd take a 1:9 if they make it. 1:10 is close to being ok on heavy bullets. 1:8 isn't necessary and costs you some velocity. 215gr is my limit in the 300wm. If more is needed, the 338 edge comes out of the safe.
